PV 401 Solar Training – Real World Training

PV401 Solar Training

PV401 Solar Training. A real world, on-the job solar installation, training, and experience is the most important part of your solar education. Only the US Solar Institute puts you into the field with the installing contractor on fully permitted, contracted, and engineered jobs as part of your solar training. You will help design, build, install, commission, program, and maintain photovoltaic power systems during this dynamic course. Upon successful completion, you will have earned the most solar career-relevant diploma in the country – A US Solar Institute Diploma in Photovoltaics.

 

How will PV401 Solar Training help my solar career?

To become a qualified Florida solar contractor, one must have a minimum of one year of on-the-job proven experience working in the solar installation and/or the solar construction industry. Many require one to be a solar panel installer, solar project manager, or a solar energy superintendent working in the solar installation field prior to being eligible for licensure. We can help give you that experience in PV 401.
